Beginner - Pyscho Killer by the Talking Heads on acoustic. Simple and effective...it was my first tune.

But I think everyone DOES know Smoke On The Water, but obviously you don't HAVE to know it just most people do.
All they usually know is the first riff and by the way it is on distorted hammond organ not guitar.

For electric guitar:

The "whole lotta love" riff is good value.

Sabbath's "Paranoid" is classic.

ACDC "back in black" is also tasty.

Master of puppets is great but to play it right is pretty tricky.

Eventually every guitarist should build up a list of theme tunes to fill the boredom gap,

my list,

pink panther, the flinstones, star wars, tetris, the muppets, 007, mission imposible, lord of the rings....etc. as you can see i tend to get bored quite easily
and it's always fun to learn these if you happen to have an incredibly short attention span.

Yup I totally agree, when I started that was probably the 3rd song I learned...next to Pens and Needles by Hawthorne Heights

Great list.
No Zeppelin though.
How about "Whole lotta love"?

High satisfaction rating on that one.
